Shook Ankles: Kevin Durant Turns Chase Budinger Into A Folding Chair

Of all the amazing things Kevin Durant is able to do with a basketball, the way he manages to tighten his gangly arms into a crisp, effective crossover while moving full speed towards the basket might be the most understated. He can make it flashy, but Durant’s game isn’t about that; his performances widen eyes staring at his post game box score almost more than his actual game time play. He gets it done, every night, with no exceptions. In line with almost every other action he conducts during a game, Durant uses the crossover as a vessel to score the basketball, and the way he’s able to use it traveling at all different types of speeds makes him that much more of an unbeatable, once-in-a-generation talent.
